Re: [criteria update] Serial console
It will be using anaconda as soon as we get the support merged. But you always have vnc. -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail. Please excuse my brevity.

[criteria update] Serial console
Because of changes in new anaconda [1] and after short discussion with Chris Lumens, I propose to delete this beta [2] criterion: 'The installer must be able to complete an installation using the serial console interface' Reason (according to Chris): (This criterion) will need to be removed for this release, given that there will be no text mode interface temporarily. Please, if you have some suggestions or notes reply to this thread. If there won't be any objections I'll make changes during next week.

No text mode installs at all? That seems like a pretty critical function to me. Is there some new functionality (sorry, I haven't looked into upcoming anaconda changes yet) that replaces this? How can an admin install on a server they have to use a remote console system for? Doesn't that also negate the use of iLO's, RSA's and the like? Maybe I'm just missing something. VNC maybe? Couldn't that also affect current kickstart configs used for some testing automation? Maybe not? Regards, Scott Please, if you have some suggestions or notes reply to this thread.

Thanks. So, should a requirement be added to test install via VNC? And, could this one be listed as Deferred like mentioned in another anaconda thread?
